A cloud decision is a business decision about cost, performance, resilience, and control. Hypershift helps you choose the right approach, build a sound foundation, and prepare your team to operate it.

A renewal, capacity constraint, acquisition, or application change can force a cloud decision before the full picture is clear. Moving everything may create new problems. Leaving everything in place may limit what your business can do next. We help evaluate workloads in context: their dependencies, service requirements, economics, and the skills needed to support them. Your roadmap should explain what moves, what stays, and why.
Compare public cloud, private infrastructure, and hybrid options against business priorities.
Define account structures, connectivity, access, and operating standards before complexity grows.
Map dependencies, sequence work, and plan validation, cutover, and rollback.
Identify repeatable deployment and management tasks suited to infrastructure as code.
Relate resource consumption to business use and identify changes worth making.
Align availability and recovery design with the applications your business relies on.
We start with the decision or constraint driving the engagement. Together, we establish a baseline, evaluate alternatives, and document the tradeoffs. A focused project can address one workload or one architectural problem. Broader programs can connect multiple phases of modernization.
Typical outputs include a workload decision matrix, architecture diagrams, migration plan, cost assumptions, and an operating responsibility map. Implementation work can add automation, tested configurations, and knowledge transfer.
Hypershift's cloud work draws on a broader foundation in data centers, networks, and security. Co-founder Nate Reynolds' consulting background includes data center modernization and cloud migration. That perspective helps connect platform decisions to the systems and people that must keep working through the change.
Not necessarily. The first question is whether what you already own is configured, integrated, and operated effectively. Recommendations often involve process changes or better use of existing investments before any new purchase.
Yes. We can focus on an existing architecture, deployment process, cost concern, or recovery requirement without starting a new migration or replacement program.
Yes. We can contribute specialist design, troubleshooting, or implementation capacity while your team keeps operational ownership. The division of work is agreed during scoping.
Consulting focuses on decisions, assessments, and scoped projects. Implementation and ongoing management are separate, optional engagements. An assessment does not automatically include deployment or a managed service subscription.
No. Most work begins with the specific question or constraint in front of you. A focused engagement can address one workload, one system, or one decision, and broader programs can follow if they earn their place.
Deliverables are scoped to the engagement and can include an assessment, prioritized recommendations, architecture or design documents, and an implementation roadmap, each with clear owners and next steps.
With your priorities and the resources you already have. We shape the scope around the decisions you need to make and the work you need completed.
Bring us your migration question, growing cloud bill, or architectural roadblock. We'll help define the work that will move it forward.
